[Bogey]

Gulfstream Park POST SCRATCHES - GOOD / GOOD


R7 - MSW 47k (2yo 8.5F)

#3 Nagazza (4-1) - Solid debut and stretch out should help.
#12 Long Water (5-1) - Working well in So Fla for return.
#10 Comsic Coincidence (12-1) - Barn strong with 1sters.
#5 Palace Gate (8-1) - Hard to leave these connections out of the mix. 3RD

R8 - OC 75k/N1X (Turf 2yo 8F)

#3 Camden Street (3-1) - Lived up to the hype in debut; Dangerous (Possible singleton)
#14 Theros (15-1) - Gutsy win in last, just needs trip from wide draw.
#6 The Battle Is On (8-1) - Expect best strides late.
#7 Myostiis Dan (4-1) - Should take to the lawn; impressive synthetic win.

R9 - G3 Sugar Swirl

#2 Twice Told Tale (8-1) - Has plenty of speed to run at. Good enough?
#6 Classic Point (4-1) - Freshened, nicely drawn, and talented. 4TH
#3 Heart Stealer (3-1) - In career form and in the mix. WON $4.20
#5 R Free Roll (2-1) - Siding against her to produce back to back huge performances. 2ND

R10 - Clm 16k B (Turf 8F)

#8 Noble Doss (6-1) - Solid turf record and Lezcano returns. 4TH
#1 Target Sighted (3-1) - Drops and should get a ground saving trip. WON $6.00
#5 Hold That Camera (20-1) - Runs late for a piece.
#4 Favorite Ketch (4-1) - Decent enough form for a minor award. 2ND

PK4 - 3 5 6 7 10 12 / 3 6 7 14 / 2 6 / 1 8 = $48 for $.50


Hollywood Park POST SCRATCHES - CUSHION / FIRM

#9 Heat the Ghost (4-1) 2ND

#1 Valtari (8-1)
#2 Spring Up (3-1) WON 4.80
#6 Boyett (6-1) 2ND
#5 Power Ped (6-1)

R9 - G1 Cash Call Futurity - An old wise guy taught me to never take a short price on a horse doing something for the first time, but I will break that trend today. I'm singling Shared Belief in his two turn bow. He attacks the ground when he's running and doesn't seem that the route will be a problem.

#6 Shared Belief (7-2) - Super impressive in two starts. Distance should not be a concern. WON $4.00
#2 Tamarando (4-1) - Obviously likes a synthetic surface and should be running late again. 3RD
#5 Tap It Rich (9-2) - Didn't embarrass himself in BC Juvy off maiden score.

#7 Euroclydon (5-1) 2ND
#3 Im a Giant Star (9-2)
#2 Top Pegasus (8-1)

Thanks, Dave - got nosed - Shared Belief has the look of a serious runner. I can't wait to see him on dirt in 2014.

Jeez you take your losses better then I do...ya gotta add that you were live to 3 in the last leg... The favorite (3) one of them scratches so your then given the 5...then the gates open and one of your remaining 2 selections is pulled up before the first turn...then the 7 which is you only selection still running when you were live to 3 horses 1 minute earlier...is beaten by a nose in a brutal photo...game will humble you for sure...its like torture sometimes

This game has brought Kings to their knees. You broke the race down well from my point of view unless you were alive to the same horses. There are 100 ways to lose and only 1 way to win. At the end of the day, I feel that the photo finishes even out. I play golf as well and it's an equally humbling game.
